[tab]
got the call at five p.m.[/tab]
[tab]
your roomate said you left a note[/tab]
[tab]
saying you could use a friend[/tab]
[tab]
so I went to the hospital[/tab]
[tab]
with my heart all choked up tight[/tab]
[tab]
and I prayed while I drove,[/tab]
[tab]
praying you would be alright[/tab]
[tab]
that morning you called to talk[/tab]
[tab]
you talked about how life was a merry go-round,[/tab]
[tab]
and you wanted to get off[/tab]
[tab]
*but I never thought I^?d see you here,[/tab]
[tab]
I never thought I^?d hold your hand[/tab]
[tab]
in your hour of need[/tab]
[tab]
I always thought you^?d cry for help,[/tab]
[tab]
I always thought you^?d understand[/tab]
[tab]
that life is worth fighting for (echo)[/tab]
[tab]
your life is worth fighting for[/tab]
[tab]
so you thought no one understood[/tab]
[tab]
thought tomorrow would be easier[/tab]
[tab]
if we went on without you[/tab]
[tab]
but my friend, it^?s a lie,[/tab]
[tab]
please hold on, call for help[/tab]
[tab]
my friend, it^?s your life,[/tab]
[tab]
you^?re not by yourself[/tab]
[tab]
so you^?re living on the razor^?s edge[/tab]
[tab]
we^?ll I^?ve - been there myself,[/tab]
[tab]
holding a gun to my head[/tab]
[repeat chorus]
-
[tab] -
(piano solo, note rhythm change marked by -)[/tab]
[tab] -
if you hold my hand,[/tab]
[tab]
can you hold on for a moment longer?[/tab]
[tab] -
if you know I love you,[/tab]
[tab]
does it make it better?[/tab]
[tab] -
if you hold my hand,[/tab]
[tab]
can you hold on for a moment longer?[/tab]
[tab] -
if you know I love you,[/tab]
[tab]
we can make it together ... (repeat and fade)[/tab]
